Our verdict
The striking bar covered in brushed brass and the sculptural suspended fireplaces catch the eye, but the unobstructed views of the snow-capped mountains and Lake Wakatipu through the floor-to-ceiling windows are awe-inspiring. The two menus served at dinnertime showcase a creative take on New Zealand cuisine drawing on seasonal local ingredients. The gin & tonic menu featuring a range of New Zealand spirits is also worth delving into.
